A third question about the importance of a 2-2 Texans team uniting after an overtime home loss to Seattle last Sunday was met with the same response.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Foster said.

The Texans star running back did discuss outsiders eager to tear down a team he believes is not just the best in the AFC South, but the premier team in the NFL. Foster also chastised media for seeing “blood”, while saying fans criticizing Schaub are jumping to unfair early conclusions.

“The season isn’t over. So nobody’s really — it happens; it’s the National Football League. Only one team has gone undefeated and won a Super Bowl,” Foster said. “That expectation is very high. It’s not realistic but it’s very high. So you’ve got to understand how to take losses in the NFL and how to take wins. You can’t walk around with your chest out when you get a big W and you can’t walk around moping when you get an L. You have a game to play the very next week. And … the media and the fans are very, very fickle.”

Like Owen Daniels and Antonio Smith, Foster said he believes the Texans found a key part of their 2012 selves during a strong first half against Seattle.

“Absolutely. Absolutely,” Foster said. “I feel like we had them on the ropes and we had the game won. We just made a couple critical errors in all phases of the game that could have prevented a Seahawks’ win. It’s over. But you just take what you can from that game, the good and the bad, and you move on.”
